His varied style I really like, his songs …

It is rare to see an Asian American songstress making a name for herself in America, despite the claim that there is no racial bias in entertainment. And so Vienna Teng’s presence upon the adult alternative music scene is very much refreshing and a welcome change from the numerous …

Two quick notes. The …

Love in this Club is a slow and somehow really addictive song to listen to and also slow dance to. It is sung by Usher and it has a bit of a “bad boy” flare to it as well, which makes the chorus of the song even more appealing …

Before this album was released I simply couldn’t believe that the band are going to be able to create such great music as they did on this album. I thought that it was very unlikely that the guys are going to have as much inspiration as they used to …
